File Download Counter/Monitor

I've looked around to see if anyone else had ever asked for something like this but couldn't really find anything.

I think it would be a great idea if CoffeCup Software worked on some kind of proggie to let us monitor files stored in our websites. For example, I have a .RAR file in my website for users to download. I want to know how many times that file has been downloaded, the dates in which it has been downloaded, probably the IPs of the people who downloaded that file (that would help me to determined WHERE are those users coming from), etc.

I have no idea about PHP, or anything like that so right now that's a big problem for me!

CC used to have such a monitor on their site some years back. Don't know if that was something they made themselves or not. It was quietly sitting at the top of the page ticking away when something was downloaded.
